Trailer of Shilpa Shetty-hosted show 'Maa Hai Na' out now
Mumbai, May 26
Actor Shilpa Shetty will be seen donning a host hat for the show 'Maa Hai Na'.
On Tuesday, the show's trailer was unveiled. The makers have descirbed the show as a "non-fiction original comedy cooking show pairs six Gen Zs with their moms for an unpredictable, high-energy kitchen showdown."
With Shilpa Shetty Kundra as the host, "expect comedy, chaos, emotional throwbacks, and plenty of pressure as these contestants step out of their comfort zones."
On being a part of the show, Shilpa, in a press note, said, "The moment I watched the trailer of Maa Hai Na, it instantly reminded me of how emotional and chaotic kitchens can be in every Indian family. Maa Hai Na is not just about cooking; it's about those little moments between a mother and child that we often take for granted. The show has laughter, pressure, nostalgia, and genuine emotions that surprised me, and I love how beautifully it captures the madness and magic of that relationship."
She added, "A complete show packed with great energy, entertainment and emotion. What I didn't expect at all was that in all the humour we found emotions that were heartwarming and just like we believe in every Indian home, ' Maa hai Na ... toh Sab possible hai !!"

ZEE5 is really pushing content lately. But why only Gen Zs? What about millennials and their moms? Would have been more relatable if they had different age groups. Still, might give it a watch for Shilpa.
The concept sounds nice but I hope it's not just another 'lick the plate' or 'who made the biggest roti' kinda show. Indian cooking shows need to move beyond basic challenges. But Shilpa's warmth might save it. 👍
This reminds me of those moments when my mom and I would have kitchen disasters together! It's true - Indian kitchens are full of chaos and love. Shilpa's line 'Maa hai na toh sab possible hai' is spot on! We need more such wholesome content.
Just a friendly reminder that non-Indian audiences might also enjoy this. I recently watched some Indian cooking shows and they're quite entertaining. The mother-child dynamic is universal. Good luck to the contestants! 🌟
Wait, Manisha Rani is participating with her father? That's a nice twist! This isn't just 'maa' - it's about any parent-child bond. Shilpa Shetty is known for her fitness but I think she'll bring good energy as host. Let's see if this is better than MasterChef.
